Billionaire’s Pampered Wife

“So, you still want me to visit Rebecca’s parents after New Years’, right?” Bellamy asked straightforwardly.

“Jasper is dead, Christian is dead, and the main threat now is Quinn. Him alone is way too dangerous, so you need Rebecca to consolidate your powers. When you’re finished with your work in B Country, go and accompany Rebecca.”

“I hope that Tinley won’t make a big deal out of this. Please let her know about this matter,” Bellamy said seriously.

“I have already talked to her yesterday. She won’t do that anymore in the future. How are things on your side? If possible, go and accompany her earlier today,” Samuel advised.

“Sure,” Bellamy nodded. He then continued walking towards the office building.

…

Inside the manor.

Stella used her bank account from Switchland Bank to transfer the money over to the soldiers. Suzi had finished setting up the tent too. A few soldiers were busy digging holes in the icy surface.

It was 10 a. m. and the weather was fair. The morning sunlight warmed their bodies and there was a slight breeze too.

Stella sat on a chair and looked at the surface of the lake. A sentence suddenly flashed across her mind. She will be free for the rest of the day.

It was a relaxed day for her and there was no need for her to do anything. She put aside all her responsibilities, burdens, pressures, and difficulties. It was a great day, and she felt that the whole world had turned wonderful.

She took a sip of water and felt the warmth reaching into her heart. When she saw the fishing line bobbing in the water, she smiled and said, “Jasper, we’ve caught a fish.”

No one answered her, but her focus was completely on the fish, so she did not mind that her words were met with silence. She pulled hard and shouted happily, “Wow, what a big carp! And look at that glow on its body! It’ll definitely be very delicious.”

She placed the carp in a plastic bucket that was specifically meant for storing fish.

Suzi had bought it for Stella because she liked to fish.

There was an oxygen pump in the plastic barrel and a backup generator. That way, they wouldn’t need to worry about the oxygen pump losing power when they were outside.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Suzi said that this battery in the backup generator could be charged, and a single charge was enough to ensure usage for three days, so the freshness of the fish could be preserved.

Stella liked it very much. She muttered to herself as she put on another fish bait onto the hook, “Jasper, your mother is really good to me, isn’t she? It has been a blessing for me to have known you in this life.”

She then continued to fish.

At this moment, her cell phone rang. Her mood brightened when she saw that it was from Allen. She smiled and said, “You haven’t contacted me in a long time. You said that you were coming the last time, but you didn’t.”

Allen said with a smile, “I’m sorry. I had some urgent matters to deal with in the company. It’s New Years’ Eve tomorrow, so I thought about giving you a call. I’m worried that you had forgotten all about me.”

“How could I forget you? You are so good-looking, like a prince in a fairytale. No one will be able to forget you,” Stella said with a smile.

“Stella, there’s something I think that you should know.” Allen suddenly got serious.

“What is it?” Stella realized that something must have happened on his side, otherwise, his tone wouldn’t have turned so serious all of a sudden.

“Linda is pregnant. The child is Frederick’s,” Allen said.

“Okay…” Stella paused for a moment, and then said, “I don’t think that’s possible. Frederick has gone through a vasectomy a long time ago because he didn’t want to have children. So, it is unlikely for her to be pregnant with his child.”

“What?” Allen was also shocked. “So, who could the father be?”

“Perhaps only Linda herself would know. Is she unwilling to say anything? Or is she still determined that the baby belongs to Frederick?”

“Wait a minute. I will hand the phone over to her. She is right next to me,” Allen said as he passed the phone to Linda.

“Stella, it’s Linda. I’m pregnant with Frederick’s child. It really is Frederick’s child. I haven’t done it with anyone else apart from him. I swear, I am certain that it’s Frederick’s,” Linda said firmly.

“Frederick has gone through a vasectomy, there is no way he could get a girl pregnant,” Stella said once more.

“What if he isn’t? I’m sure that the baby is his child,” Linda was certain.

“I see. I will give Frederick a call and ask him to go to the hospital for a checkup. We’ll know for sure that if it’s an accident once the report is out,” Stella said respectfully.

“So, you are in touch with Frederick after all. When I tried to contact him, the call couldn’t get through at all,” Linda’s tone became cold.

“I will try. Perhaps, I won’t be able to get through to him either,” Stella explained.

“There’s no need to contact him. I lied about being pregnant, I just wanted to see him. After all, he did take my virginity. But he won’t answer my call, which could only mean that he does not care about me at all. I don’t want a man who doesn’t love me,” Linda then hung up the phone.

Stella let out a sigh.

In this world, more often than not, one’s sincerity would be met with inconsideration and ungratefulness.

Some true feelings might also be lost over time.

Therefore, one must cherish and remember the good moments once they found the person they loved, even if they were to live a life of mediocrity where they would quarrel over trivial things like food, wealth, their child’s education, and so on. They must not forget that they used to love each other deeply.

They must learn to forgive and take a step back in order to keep this love and to fight for a better life.

Her cell phone rang and it was Allen once again.

Stella answered the call calmly.

Allen apologized, “I’m sorry, Stella. She sounded very convincing. I was deceived by her.”

“It’s okay. By the way, when are you coming over? I’ve found you a good piece of land. You lost your factory because of me so it’s only right if I were to return one to you.”

Allen said with a smile, “The money I’ve gotten is several times more than that of the factory. I am even thinking about sharing it with you. Besides, I just need to rebuild my factory in the original place. There is no need to change the location. I might go over to A Country in April. I heard that the weather there would be warmer around that time. By then, I want a taste of your cooking.”

“That’s a deal then,” Stella stared at the lake and saw the fishing line bobbing again. “Allen, I am in the middle of fishing, so I’ll hang up first. See you next year.”

Stella then hung up the phone and pulled on the fishing rod. It turned out to be another fish that weighed more than half a kilogram.

She has never fed the fish in this lake, so they were mostly famished. Also, she rarely fished, so it was more common for the fish to take the bait.

In just two hours, she had caught three carps, one trout, and another large northern pike.

Suzi peeked at the fish box when she came to deliver lunch at noon. “Wow, there are so many fish. I guess I should buy more fish boxes.”

Stella laughed. “I rarely fish, it would be a waste to buy that many.”

She opened the lunch box that Suzi had brought over.

There was going to be a banquet later that night, so Suzi had gone to buy groceries. She only made some omelet and sausage for lunch. She also prepared some chicken soup so that Stella could warm her body.

Stella ate contentedly and praised, “Mom, your cooking is really great.”

Suzi was in a good mood. “It’s not as good as yours. Jasper doesn’t like my cooking. The housekeeper was always the one to cook back then.”
